  92. Libraries & Frameworks & Build Tools & Compilers

  93. A sufficiently advanced build tool is indistinguishable from a compiler.

  94. With libraries, you call them.

  95. With frameworks, they call you.

  96. Compilers make the phone.

  97. We can compile our styles.

  98. We can compile our code.

  99. Can we compile our apps?

  100. What if jQuery were a compiler?

  101. None

  102. asm.js

  103. asm.js targets a performant subset of JS.

  104. None

  105. asm.dom should target a performant subset of the DOM.

  106. Virtual DOM

  107. 2. The future?

  108. 3. One weird trick.

  109. dependencies

  110. new languages

  111. new APIs

  112. control flow

  113. runtime

  114. Let's use virtual DOMs as our asm.dom

  115. None
  116. None

  117. cooking → human productivity compiling → developer productivity

  118. Let's start cooking.

  119. Thank you.

  120. Join us tomorrow at 16:30 to talk about the future

    of frameworks.
